Inspect Surface - Pre NGC

Im trying to use the inspect surface on a Older Haas machine and its probing but what is received is like hieroglyphics.

Im using RS-232 but i think the problem is somewhere in the transfer. Any help would be great. Thanks!

 

Here is what I'm seeing received at the computer form a single probe.

Sorry I was being stupid. I thought the Second Baud rate settings on the machine were for receiving. I was wrong. I was able to send and receive from the same rs-232 port using the same settings.

Hi @markkonschak,

 

I would love to hear how you are getting on with this, please feel free to DM me feedback. Im working on a video to explain how to set up the RS232 connection to make things easier. Its great to see you've managed to get it running.

Hey Richard,

Id love to help. I had to switch to hyperterminal as my normal dnc software wasn't getting all the information. Im using all the same baud rate settings that I would normally dnc with. Once I probe and all the info is recieved on the computer i had to copy and paste it to notepad becuase fusion couldnt open the HT file. But it worked well once re saving it as a TXT file.
